  • This video covers basic cost concepts...with a touch of humor for managerial accounting.
    Before discussing Managerial Accounting topics such as activity-based costing and the Balance Scorecard, it's important to have a strong foundation in the basic cost concepts.
    This includes understanding what a cost is, and knowing the distinction between direct and indirect costs. For manufacturers, this also includes knowing the difference between product and period costs.
    It is also critical to understand concepts such as opportunity cost and sunk costs.
    Also, here's the link to the master's degree program in Puppet Arts at the University of Connecticut: drama.uconn.edu/programs/pupp...
    This video is my first attempt to use humor in one of my educational videos, so I hope you enjoy it!-
